Since you asked....
We have a three game stretch coming up that will test the mettle. On the surface, I don't really like our odds in any of the three games. Division games are always tough, and the Channel Chickens are playing really well this year. So..... what do we have going for us instead of the gloom and doom.?? Well, we ARE going to play two of the three at home. That should give us a small advantage (on paper..). It usually amounts to about 3 points. But you better believe that neither of these opponents are going to give us anything.!!
Along with the "home field", we have been artificially setting ourselves up for the two games against the Bucs. Since we have been 'alternating' W(s) & L(s), it would seem that we should be OK against the Bucs and should lose to the Hawks (if you put any store in that kind of thing..). OTOH, if we're being purely intentional, I suspect we might lose all three. Looking at the Bucs and the way they have been playing, it would seem that we could steal a game or two from them. The Seahawks have to play here as well. It won't be easy, but it's doable.
So, I'm going out on a limb here. I'll say we take the first two at home. And the Bucs lose their #2 game to the Dolphins. That scenario will make the last game in Tampa a "non-issue".
Now watch -- We'll lose all three because I opened my mouth... SMDH
